Awareness in Agriculture Recognizing and Responding to Infectious DiseasesEven when biosecurity is at its best, livestock are never guaranteed a clean bill of health. It is beneficial for livestock handlers to have a basic understanding of disease symptoms. Different symptoms call for different actions. With a host of diseases that are contagious from animal to animal and/or animal to human, the proper response can be critical. |

In Your Home
In Your HomeMold Photo courtesy of Paul Davis Systems Have you ever come upon a pile of old leaves and turned the leaves over to find a growth of mold? Mold is everywhere inside and outside. Can you name some places where mold is apt to grow? (Ask participants to name places where mold can grow. Answers may include greenhouses, farms, compost piles, wooded or shaded areas, lake areas, about anyplace since mold spores are everywhere and just need moisture to grow.) Mold can grow anywhere there is moisture. For this lesson, we will talk about mold in the home and classify mildew as mold too. We will explore why some people are more at risk for allergies to mold, and we will learn that mold can be good but can also impact our health. |
